I'm not sure if it improved the colors or not, but they did change the
zeros so now they have a dot in the middle of them.  Before the uppercase
"O" as in Olive, and the Zero "0" looked exactly the same.  Hmmm.  If the
colors ARE fixed, it might make monotype a good selection with the special
zero... gives us another character to play with. :)
